In DC? No.

Blue collar job with terrible hours.

Statistically it's backed up. Lawyers marry lawyers, doctors marry doctors, etc. There are probably some people that marry nurses, but not maybe very well educated or high-earning.

What he says is true. My sis in law became a nurse. Soon as she became a nurse she didn't want a family or to be a wife anymore. She wanted clubbing and the single life with her fellow nurse friends who took her out on the town.


Confirmation bias. I do think there is *maybe* a segment of the female population who go into nursing as it is a typically female profession that may also coincide with young marriage and childbirth. In that case, a 30-something Rumspringa isn't surprising. It's a profession you can start in fairly young with limited education, and has been historically more accessible as a legit career path to LMC/MC women than pursuing an MD. Did she start out young, PP?

There are narcissists and nasty people in every profession.


There are four doctors and two nurses in my family. They are not sympathetic people. Medical training does the opposite of that.

Sounds like a family dynamic.

I know a gay man who married a nurse. Clearly nurses are marriage material.

I've seen nurses divorce at a far higher rate than any other profession. Usually the female nurse starts to earn the big bucks and divorces the man.

My first job was in an emergency room (social worker) and I worked with the nurses closely and respected all of them, from the warmest to the "all business" types, they were superheroes to me. And still are. Most were married and seemed stable but there were a few younger twenty somethings who dated troubled men: Addicts or cheaters or abusive men. I think more than a few came from alcoholic families. My experience was that some persistently dated down, and some were in marriages where they worked so hard at the job and did all the work at home too. I don’t know if it's a common pattern but I thought several of them deserved a lot better

I’m an RN. I’m smart, caring, and make six figures. I also come home with great stories and could actually help you in an emergency. Why wouldn’t someone want to marry me?!

Yes, first week of nursing 101 is all about how to get the intonation all wrong.

Really? Even the nuns???

Nursing was one of the few professions easily accessible to women for many years. I think that nursing has a wide variety of personalities and value systems.
